Carrie Bradshaw style, Andy Sachs savvy—minus the Chanel splurge. The Devil Wears Prada 2 and And Just Like That costume designer Molly Rogers has launched a chic, budget-friendly collection with Macy’s On 34th.

If your closet craves Carrie Bradshaw and Andy Sachs energy but your bank account does not, Molly Rogers just tossed you the assist. The costume designer tied to The Devil Wears Prada 2 and And Just Like That has a new collab with Macy's On 34th, and it is basically a highlight reel of her career turned into real-life clothes you can actually wear.

What this line is aiming for

Rogers built the collection the way she builds characters: with New York as the muse and practicality baked in. Think bright, mix-and-match pieces that go day to night, with a bunch of sly nods to her past projects. Yes, there is that very specific shade of cerulean. Yes, there are devilishly chic pumps. And yes, there are Carrie-coded flourishes everywhere.

"I really bring that street inspiration into the fitting room. I used that as the foundation, and the diving board, into doing this Macy's collection."

She also went back through her mental fitting room of greatest hits and almost-hits. If something once looked great but needed a tweak, she tweaked it here. Macy's helped her tighten the edits so the collection feels like walking into her set fitting room: playful, polished, and built for styling a dozen different ways.

How it actually looks and wears

The On 34th x Molly Rogers lineup leans hard into versatility: colorful tops, skirts, jackets, accessories, and a few smartly engineered surprises. It is glam enough for a Manhattan night and easy enough to throw on for coffee. Pockets appear where you want them. Pieces reverse. A pocket even detaches and moves. It is clever in a way that feels very 'designed by someone who has dressed actors in tiny trailers at 5 a.m.'

The standout pieces (and the little details that matter)

  • Mixed-print maxi skirt: A swishy, dress-up-or-down maxi built from a mash-up of prints inspired by Rogers's own scarf collection and vintage ties. Totally in the Andy Sachs lane when you pair it with a simple tee.
  • Ruffled skirt with shorts: A Carrie-minded ruffle skirt that hides built-in shorts for comfort and confidence. It is an updated wink at the famous pink tutu silhouette, made lighter and more spring-friendly.
  • The big satin scarf: A bold, graphic, multi-purpose scarf meant to be played with. Tie it to keep your hair down on a bike, pair it with a matching bucket hat, twist it into a skirt — it is a styling sandbox.
  • Bright-blue duster: Lightweight, pocketed, and unapologetically blue. Rogers calls it the kind of staple Carrie would absolutely reach for, and you can dress it up or toss it over jeans with zero effort.
  • Straight-leg cargo pants: Not slouchy, just sharp. Clean lines, light fabric, and a detachable back pocket that sits just above the lower back — a tweak Rogers arrived at in fittings with Sarah Jessica Parker. Functionally, it is a chicer built-in fanny pack. Odd? A little. Smart? Very.
  • Utilitarian lightweight jacket: Rogers calls a piece like this the framework for everything. Oversized for a fashion edge, but still outdoorsy if you want it to be. Wear it with shorts, over a spring dress, belted, unbelted — it is a styling workhorse.
  • White tee with matchbox print: Soft, bright, and easier than thinking at 8 a.m. The whimsical matchbox graphic nods to fashionable cities and turns a basic tee into an instant conversation starter with denim or skirts.
  • Oversized 'modern' blazer: Cut to flatter basically everyone, with a removable flower pin for extra Carrie flair. Works from office to date night, and the shoe math is wide open: sneakers, sandals, pumps — all fair game.
  • Red statement pumps: A classic pump reworked with a mid-height heel and sleek, Miranda Priestly-leaning red. The idea is wear-all-day comfortable but still a capital-S Shoe. Looks great with dark jeans or a matching midi.
  • Flower brooch trio: Three patterned pins inspired by Carrie's famous blooms. Wear one, stack all three, move them around — the quick-hit outfit upgrade is kind of the point.
  • Color-block skirt with high-low hem: Bright, easy, and designed to show off your shoes. Very Sex and the City meets The Devil Wears Prada in the best way.
  • East-West clutch: For when you want the designer look without the designer bill. Long, lean silhouette with a reptile texture and subtle metallics — ideal for dinners, formal date nights, weddings.
  • Pinstripe trousers with a twist: Tailored with a nip at the hem, classic pinstripes up front, and striped side panels for the modern update. Tonal mixing keeps it office-appropriate but much cooler than basic linen or denim.
  • Reversible zip-up jacket: Soft navy on one side; flip it to a geometric patchwork print on the other. Ribbed hems keep it flattering and comfortable all day. Two jackets in one without adding a hanger to your closet.

Bottom line

Rogers distilled years of on-set problem solving into a tight, colorful wardrobe you can remix to death. You get the New York mood, the cinematic references (hello, cerulean), and a lot of little decisions that make day-to-night dressing easier. And yes, the fun stuff has pockets.
